History WMG / TheOtherKingdom

!!Principal Williams knows Astral's a fairy and/or that she's a princess

* Keep in mind that Astral and Brendoni are in the other world for different reasons. Astral's there because she wanted to experience life in that world, and had a crush on a boy. She went to the other world willingly, vs Brendoni was forced to go to the other world ''against'' his will: he's there because King Oberon was trying to get him to realize how humans and fairies were dependent on each other, and learn to be respectful to them, via actual experience. The plan seems to be working as despite having still having a troublesome side, [[CharacterDevelopment he's not nearly as harmful towards "others" as he was towards the beginning]]. Plus, while Astral needs to worry about potentially becoming the kingdom's next ruler, Brendoni doesn't have that pressure on him, and honestly, having him remain in the "other" world in the finale would not only complete his arc, [[BecameTheirOwnAntithesis it would showcase just how far he's gone, and how he's basically a different person altogether.]] [[HumanityEnsues Bonus points if Brendoni gives up his fairy and/or troll powers to become completely normal.]]

* The events of the series kicked off because Petrithon fell in love with a mortal woman and decided to leave his homeland for her. We know that Petrithon being with the woman means he had to forfeit being the king of Athenia -- leaving his younger brother to become king in his place -- but he never said that he had to give up his powers or become "an other" in order to be with her. Maybe he still has his powers, but he's doing to ''very'' good job at hiding them.

* Related to the previous pointer of Versitude presumably having a past love, it's presumed that she's meant to serve as a dark reflection of how Astral or even Petrithon could have viewed their world, and maybe it plays a role in her hatred of "others". However, all three of them would likely react in different ways to losing a loved one: Astral's an AllLovingHero who's willing to overlook the event, and still remain loving and caring, Petrithon briefly let the grief overcome him to the point where he's willing to harm others, but he's still got a conscience and can still be reformed with the right influence, and Versitude would have handled it the worst being willing to make others suffer just because of what she went through, and simply refuses to let go of her bitterness. Astral's probably going to try to connect with her due to their similar pasts, and [[LastSecondChance convince her she doesn't have to be the way she is by showing her why humanity is worth saving]], [[ShutUpKirk only for Versitude to refuse to see the light]], [[SillyRabbitIdealismIsForKids and possibly even attack her for thinking there was good in her]].

* Mrs. Tracey (Morgan's mother)

* Considering that a good piece of the ensemble is made up of fairies-- including Astral-- and several of their magical abilities, I'm surprised it was never brought up whether any of them are capable of granting wishes, considering they're still the protectors of Earth life. If so, how many can they grant? Is the fairy obligated to respond to the wish, if the person just wishes for it, or does the person have to aid the fairy somehow before they can do so, like say, saving the fairy's life or simply being hospitable.

* By the time the series gets an announcement for a revival/continuation on the network, the actors would be too old to play their retrospective characters, so they won't be able to properly play convincing teenagers with live-action. The only other alternative is to have the series be animated

** A reporter or journalist who stumbles upon one of the secret fairy realms, and tries to reveal the truth, and expose them to society, even if it means resorting to immoral measures.

** Some kind of authority figure (probably a doctor, scientist or government agent) who finds out about Astral being a fairy and questions her about her identity, while also being willing to perform less than-ethical tests on her, possibly by examining her closely or trying to look inside of her... perhaps literally. Since Morgan first discovered Astral's fairy status, she was determined to protect Astral from harm and keep her status a secret, mostly because she was worried that people would try to lock her up and perform experiments on her to see what made her what she was. And as previously mentioned with the "exposure of fairies" pointer, the people of the other world will react differently upon discovering Astral's a fairy, so who's to say that someone actually trying to examine her wouldn't be fair game? With so many references to this potential outcome, it's only natural that this would actually come true.

* In the episode "Bad Bad Fairy", it's stated that various fairies have a darkness that could corrupt them if they embrace their negative emotions too much or get too arrogant. It nearly got the best of Astral. I wonder just what that was about. Maybe this could be a major plot point. It seemed "Bad, Bad Fairy" was meant to serve as an InnocuouslyImportantEpisode and serve as {{foreshadowing}} for a potential storyline surrounding dark fairies, [[RageBreakingPoint or Astral's insecurities, rage, pride, or some combination of the three finally making her lose it.]] I can't wait to see the pay-up.

* Since Devon's father is a fairy, and his (unseen) mother was a muggle, this makes Devon a HalfHumanHybrid who's part fairy. The show's established that fairies aren't born with their powers or their wings, rather they gain their powers and grow their wings at a certain age but the exact age differs from fairy to fairy. Sooner or later, Devon will be getting his fairy wings and will be able to join his cousins Astral and Brendoni. Also, if Devon ''does'' get his wings, don't give him the wings at the last minute or make him an InstantExpert. He's just as much of a lead character as Astral, which means he deserves to have his own personal arc where he grows as a character, as a way to make thoseat end results feel more earned. Besides, he didn't even know magic or fairies ''existed'' until Astral and Brendoni got into the picture.

** Season 1 ends with Tristan discovering he was the lost prince of fairy Spartania (presumably) destined to conquer Athenia, despite wanting absolutely no part in that (Although, there's likely going to be a loophole around that). Season 2 can have Tristan take over as the main protagonist, with Astral being the deuteragonist, or something. He'll go through his own self-journey, learn some lore about Spartania and its history, meet some of the natives, and hopefully make a positive change on his environment. It seems like the series was setting up for this happen anyway. This would make him a complex character who would be even more worthy of being Astral's boyfriend.

* Her main purpose in the story narrative-wise is serve as an ally for Winston, providing him the kindness and support that most of the residents neglected to give him, and serve as a catalyst for his CharacterDevelopment and give him an appreciation for nature. Now that Winston's gotten a confidence boost [[spoiler: and a fairy heart]], she doesn't serve much of a role in the story now, and so something -- or [[WouldHurtAChildsomeone]] -- is going to take her out]]. It'll showcase just how serious things are getting, as not even fan favorites or child characters are safe from death.

* We've seen very little of Spartania and the kingdom's residents and monarchy, and considering Athenia and Spartania are rival kingdoms, it seems Spartania is meant to represent what Athenia isn't. But it's also clear that good, noble kingdoms can have cunning, untrustworthy traitors, and that evil kingdoms can have residents that are actually decent people who either aren't evil or don't want to be evil (maybe they were ForcedIntoEvil, or flat-out not even working with the bad guys). And since Versitude -- the advisor to Athenian King Oberon -- is secretly an evil traitor, it makes since for Spartanian King Reed's advisor to secretly be a heroic rebel. They'd basically be a {{foil}} to Versitude, as they're both royal advisors who secretly plot behind the kings of their retrospective kingdoms, but with completely different goals. This will basically prove that not all Spartanians are bad by default, and Tristan will have an ally while in Spartania. They'd basically be Tristan's [[WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender Uncle Iroh]]. Bonus points if Reed's advisor is introduced as seemingly being as evil as Reed, only to reveal later on to be GoodAllAlong.

!! Either Tristan or Astral will die at the end of the series

* Nearly all the major characters on the show had gone through some kind of character arc. [[note]] Astral initially came to the human realm because of her crush on Tristan, but that became less important as she becomes her own independent woman to the fairies and inhabitants of her realm. Brendoni started off as a mischief-loving troublemaker who doesn't like "others" viewing them as foolish and mainly seeing them as his to mess with, but would slowly come to genuinely care about Devon and the others and would become a rather good and loyal friend to the group (while still partially keeping his mischievous side), coming to care about the "others". Even Winston went through an arc where he grew to care about nature and gain some self-esteem and bravery, while also showing empathy and caring about others. [[spoiler: That's how he earned his fairy heart.]] [[/note]] It's time for Devon to go through some growth as well. His biggest issue is that [[NeatFreak he's so obsessed with order, tidiness, and responsibility to the point where refuses to get involved in anything even slightly messy.]] [[DoesNotLikeMagic Well, that and not liking magic, and hating the fact that his relatives are fairies, and that he himself is part-fairy]]. Maybe he could learn to loosen up a little (and I don't mean recreating the "Party Devo" phase) and realize that it's okay to goof off, have some fun and get messy every once in a while. He'll realize he was missing out on a large part of his child/teenhood. And what if Devon slowly started to get accustomed to being part of a magical family tree? He could go through some parts where he learns to accept Astral and Brendoni as his relatives, and possibly get exposed to some fairy heritage and help Astral out at various points. Maybe that's how he could earn his wings; they'll symbolize how Devon's a whole new man and mark the end of his arc.

* In the Season 1 finale, Peaseblossom stated that if Winston were to leave Athenia, he'd be unable to return. Wonder why that's the case. It's likely because the fairies protected Athenia (and maybe some of the other kingdoms) with a spell that prevents humans from entering their kingdom, unless an Athenian resident grants them access or temporarily brings the force field down. It might tie into the fairies' distrust of humanity, and not wanting humanity to damage their world anymore than they already have.
